Skyrim was a buggy, glitchy piece of shit with a terrible story line.
If you bought Skyrim for the story you're doing it wrong.

Yea, I tend to lean towards more realistic games. Not realism simulators but games that have at least 1 foot in this world. That typically is FPS and racing games. Half Life is about as far as I go into unrealism.
You're missing a ton of good games then.

Being trained in how a fairy world works and learning what kind of potions and wizard spells you have to use, that kills it for me. I find RPG gameplay boring. Fallout 3 and STALKER were games that I tried but ultimately uninstalled because I never had fun in them.

STALKER isn't an RPG though. It's not even close. The only RPGish thing about it is you have an inventory.

In* some rpgs u have to learn the Orc language lol
STALKER is a great game, a mix of realism/futurism, I don't try it much bacause it take ages to load a level, isn't 100% fault of my old pc, the game engine acts like a resource whore :o

Which STALKER do you have? Clear Sky is a resource whore. It's poorly optimized. It also happens to be the worst STALKER game (still great though) Shadow of Chernobyl is fine and Call of Pripyat runs exceptionally well.

Clear Sky, sun rays(aka God Rays :P) & shadows are the main reason for slow downs on C.S.

I also think Clear Sky looks the best out of the 3 games.

What was I supposed to buy a singleplayer RPG for then...
The gameplay. You know, the main reason people play games. The vast environment. The exploration. It's not their fault you went in with the wrong expectations.

I would argue that gameplay includes all aspects of the game, just because a game is in a genre doesnt mean that it cant have a great story. A decent story line makes me feel immersed in the universe. Fallout 3 had great gameplay, great exploration and an awesome story line. I was supposed to be DOVAHKIN but I just felt like a guy running around yelling at dragons. Lots of things in that game broke the immersion for me. I just slayed a dragon and I am being arrested for accidentally hitting someone in the battle? No thanks.
The combat in Skyrim is pretty mediocre, and at some time, simply bad. The fun I got out of it was exploring the world and doing the Guild quests like the Theives Guild and the Dark Brotherhood. It's fun sneaking into places, especially bandit camps.

At first I laughed but the more I thought about it, it just confused me.

Skyrim has many weak points, yet you can choose among thousands of mods to modify the entire game to suit your needs. Sure the combat model is many years old (it doesn't feel really different from Oblivion's one) and the story is quite poor.

p.s. just noticed Spanky modified his sig.
